A caregiver's love for a child is poetically expressed using a variety of nature and weather metaphors.Each page of rhyming text features a different setting and caregiver-and-offspring animal pair. "You are my snowfall / dancing to and fro. / Swirling all around, / where you go, I go," reads the verse on one spread showing a fox and its pup against a background of soft purples, blues, and pristine snow. The rest of the text follows this pattern, using the sun, moon, a mountain, rain, and more. God is mentioned once, and a few other related words appear like bless and prayer, although no specific religion is identified. The soft, diaphanous illustrations are soothing and inviting. The animals look extra-cuddly, and the scenery is so warm it often appears to glow. The ending comes full circle: The giraffes who at the beginning of the book observe two birds flying, find them nested with their little blue egg-an image of new life and new love continuing. For all its charms, this offering adds little new to the love-letter-to-a-child board-book niche, and the rhymes are sometimes awkward to read aloud.A sweet retread of a timeless and universal theme.
